Gorilla Capital invests in Mestamaster

Gorilla Capital Fund III has made its 58th investment in Mestamaster — a Finnish construction technology company reducing costly delays and improving predictability in construction projects through takt scheduling software.

Construction projects depend on many specialised teams working in the same building at different times. When schedules break down, teams wait for each other, work overlaps, and projects run late — increasing costs and tying up capital.

Mestamaster brings structure to this complexity. The software helps teams plan, track, and adapt work so different trades can move through the building one area at a time with fewer overlaps, less waiting, and better visibility. This reduces delays and improves how efficiently projects are delivered. The solution has been used in over 200 projects and has reduced construction time by up to 40%.

“Mestamaster creates a process and a tool for construction teams to move in sync from one working area to the next,” says Mikko Hell, Founder of Mestamaster. “With our planning and control tools, work teams can move closer to each other and improve resource efficiency. In projects with highly repetitive elements, such as hotels, the total construction time can be reduced by up to 40% without additional resources.”

“At Gorilla, we look for teams that understand their market through real customer problems and practical execution,” says Petri Lehmuskoski, Partner at Gorilla Capital. “Construction delays and coordination issues directly impact project economics. Mestamaster has demonstrated with its customers how structured construction methods can reduce these risks and improve project outcomes. The team has built this step by step, grounded in real project experience.”

Co-investors on the round include Taalinlahti Oy, Jalotavu Oy, Vierto Ventures Oy.
